As Murdy’s hauntingly beautiful images show, in Mexico death is considered a part of life and something to be celebrated rather than feared. El Día de los Muertos (which actually lasts two days on November 1 and 2) is a time to gather with friends and families to feast, pray, dance and honor the lives of those who have died. From the preparation of the food and flowers to the sanctification of the public and private spaces, to the ceremony itself, Murdy captures the spirit, beauty, and magic of this sacred observance.
On the Path of Marigolds features ninety of Murdy’s most stunning images of celebrations from three villages–Teotitlán del Valle in Oaxaca, Huaquechua in Puebla and the communities around Lake Pátzcuaro in Michoacán–along with a conversation between her and Cesáro Moreno, Director of Visual Arts and Chief Curator of the National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago and an essay by Mexican-American writer Denise Chávez.Fast Shipping and Professional Packaging
